SPACER

CONDENSER

The appliance is designed to work in room

temperatures between +16°C and +32°C. Do not

allow the room temperature to exceed +32°C

otherwise the temperature inside the fridge will rise.

Fit the spacers onto the condenser tubes (Figure 2)

and put the cleaning tip in the drainage hole at the

back of the fridge compartment.

Page 4

The fridge requires space around the casing for

efficient cooling and operation.The minimum

clearances are shown in Figure 3.

The refirgerator must be installed on a firm flat and

level surface for it to work quietly and efficiently.

Switching on

Plug the appliance into a nearby power socket and

switch on. The thermostat control (Figure 4) is

positioned inside the fridge by the light.Turn the

control to a half-way position on the dial and leave

the appliance running with the door closed for

approximately 2 hours.This will allow the inside

temperature to stabilise.

Temperature control

The temperature of the fridge is best maintained

around 0°C to + 5°C. Avoid setting the thermostat

too high otherwise this may reduce the temperature

to a point at which certain fresh foods may begin to

freeze. The temperature scale runs from 1, the

warmest setting, to 5, the coldest.The 0 position is

an OFF setting which can be used when the

refrigerator is standing empty.The fridge has an

automatic defrost cycle. Droplets of condensation

or ice particles on the back wall of the fridge are

normal.

When storing food in the fridge keep food away

from the rear wall.To allow free circulation of cold

air don’t pack food too tightly on the shelves and

never put hot food in the fridge.

Notes on operation

During normal operation the following noises may

be heard:

O Stifled murmur from compressor when it is

working.

O Soft gurgling from the refrigerant flowing

through the cooling system.

O Click from the thermostat switching on and off.

TEMPERATURE

CONTROL

Finally, unclip the drip tray from above the

compressor motor (rear of the casing, Figure 6),

wash it out and clip it back into position.

Lamp replacement

Remove the lamp cover by removing one Philips

headed screw at the far end of the lamp housing,

furthest from the door (Figure 7). Slide the diffuser

out of its groove. Unscrew the lamp and replace it

with one of the same type, (15 Watts SES E14).

Replace the cover and secure it with its screw.

General cleaning

It is recommended to clean and wipe out the fridge

regularly or after any spillage inside or outside the

appliance.

Use a teaspoonful of bicarbonate of soda diluted in

a pint of warm water.Wipe the internal surfaces

and shelving to remove food residues. Leave to dry

before reloading food.

The fridge automatically defrosts by freezing and

defrosting. Beware of the back wall as this may be

cold to the touch. Avoid wiping this until it has

thoroughly defrosted.

Wipe the outside casing from time to time in order

to remove dirt and dust from ventilation vents etc.

Keep water away from the thermostat housing.

Clean the door seals.

Remove accumulated dirt from around the

compressor motor taking care not to damage the

pipes and the wiring.

Drainage channel and drip tray

Water collects in the drainage channel on the back

wall. It then passes to a drip tray positioned above

the compressor from which it evaporates. The drain

and drip tray should be cleaned regularly to avoid

the build up of impurities.Wipe the channel with a

damp cloth and use the cleaning tip to clean out

any residue from the drainage hole.

Troubleshooting

Fuse and mains plug replacement

This product is supplied with a moulded plug

which contains a 13A fuse. If you are simply

replacing the fuse, you must use a 13A fuse which

has been approved by ASTA to BS1362 (Figure 8).

If the plug does not fit the socket or becomes

damaged, a new plug must be fitted. Replace the

original plug with the correct plug for your socket. If

this is a 3-pin (square pin) 13A (BS1363) plug, you

must make sure that it is fitted with an ASTA

approved 13A fuse.

If another type of plug is used, it must be protected

by a 15A fuse, either in the plug or at the

distribution board.

1. Cut off the existing fitted plug.

2. The wires in the mains lead supplied with this

appliance are coloured in accordance with the

following code (Figure 9):

GREEN/YELLOW = EARTH (E)

BLUE = NEUTRAL (N) BROWN = LIVE (L)

This product must be earthed

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may

not correspond with the colour markings identifying

the terminals in your new plug, proceed as follows.

The wire which is coloured GREEN or

YELLOW/GREEN must be connected to the

terminal which is marked with the letter E or E

symbol or coloured GREEN or YELLOW/GREEN.

The wire which is coloured BLUE must be

connected to the terminal in the plug which is

marked with the letter N or coloured BLACK.

The wire which is coloured BROWN must be

connected to the terminal which is marked with the

letter L or coloured RED.

3. Ensure that the connections are tight and that no

loose strands are left out of the terminals.

IF IN ANY DOUBT CONSULT A QUALIFIED

ELECTRICIAN.

If the mains lead becomes damaged consult a

qualified electrician.
